Laurel Canyon is a new feature-length docuseries that will be shown on the EPIX premium television network, premiering May 31st at 9 PM ET/PT and concluding the following Sunday, June 7th at 9 PM ET/PT. The ‘place,’ Laurel Canyon is a twisting part of the Hollywood Hills where too many rockstars enjoyed care-free small-house living, creating what would be considered the L.A. sound in the mid to late 60’s and mid-’70s.

We get back to the warble and folk with the last tune, “Roll With The Punches,” but Goldner’s piano and ukulele add just enough color to lift us from what might have expected. This also might be the very best lyric on a collection of songs that have very solid lyrics.

Reminded that “Cosplay is Not Consent” (thanks very much Comic-Con, as if I didn’t know) here men and women paint themselves, don various costumes (lots self-made) to be looked upon, have their picture taken, to be ogled. Confidence is high in the cosplay universe and simply put, everybody dressed at Comic Con, showing whatever of themselves they are showing, is hoping to be looked at.

Before hitting it huge with their 1973, The Dark Side Of The Moon album, ‘The Floyd’ was undergoing a great crisis of songwriting and identity trying to extricate itself from the influence of Pink Floyd’s leader, Syd Barrett. As infamous these days for his bout with madness and then reclusiveness post his Floyd years, a cult has grown up around Barrett, with many people divided, as Kopp makes clear, over what version of the band they like best, pre or post Barrett.

I love the writings of Molière, especially his TARTUFFE. And I adore live theatre and have so missed it during this unusual few months when we haven’t been able to enjoy it. But as I feel about the infrequent, and certainly uncomfortable times I tried to watch some of Steven Cobert’s The Late Show from his home or a ‘live; concert given by performers beaming in from some personal location far from an audience, I can’t get behind any streaming/Zoomed/at-home-streaming-replacement of our ‘new normal.

#1. July 14th saw a massive theft in Las Vegas property…and I do mean ‘massive.’ A masked man was captured on video coming into the Déjà Vu Love Boutique, an adult shop right off the infamous Las Vegas Strip (and adjacent to our friends at The Erotic Heritage Museum) stealing their world-famous massive dildo. “The world’s largest retail dildo,” as it is titled on Amazon, is three-feet tall, weighs forty pounds, and was just standing, minding its own business, right there on the store’s sales floor. The fake cock stealer heaved the dildo across his shoulder like he had every right to, left the store, and wresting the huge member into his vehicle.
